1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Navigating the complexities of institutional review board (IRB) determinations in participatory research with transgender youth is essential for prioritizing youth voices and establishing equitable opportunities for research participation. We codesigned an online interactive sexual education tool with an advisory board of transgender youth as lived-experience experts. Early codesign efforts revealed challenges in classifying advisory board members as either research participants or study team members and highlight the frequent irreconcilability between participatory approaches and IRB standards. We describe challenges our research team encountered in the IRB review process and discuss lessons learned, emphasizing the need for flexible IRB guidelines, ongoing consent practices, greater attention to power dynamics, and enhanced IRB education on participatory research, particularly with transgender youth. These lessons highlight critical insights regarding youth involvement in participatory research that are essential for prioritizing youth voices in the creation of effective, youth-led interventions.
